                                   DETER Act

    As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on the Judiciary on October 11, 2018


 S. 2785 would deny admission to the United States to aliens who have interfered in U.S.
 elections or who are seeking admission in order to do so. Under the bill's provisions,
 aliens in the United States who interfere in elections would be deportable. The legislation
 could affect spending by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on admissions and
 deportations. CBO estimates that implementing the bill would have no significant effect
 on discretionary spending by DHS because of the small number of persons likely to be
 affected.

 Enacting S. 2785 could increase the number of people who would be denied visas by the
 Department of State. Most visa fees are retained by the department and spent without
 further appropriation, but some fees are deposited in the Treasury as revenues. Because
 enacting the legislation would affect direct spending and revenues, pay-as-you-go
 procedures apply. However, CBO estimates that implementing S. 2785 would affect very
 few additional people and thus would have insignificant effects on both revenues and
 direct spending.

 CBO  estimates that enacting S. 2785 would not increase net direct spending or
 significantly increase on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods
 beginning in 2029.

 S. 2785 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
 Unfunded Mandates  Reform Act.

 The CBO  staff contact for this estimate is Mark Grabowicz. The estimate was reviewed
 by H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
